These are the some of the ones that stick in my memory, even though I haven’t played some of them in ten years. There are many other worthy candidates mentioned in other’s lists, and some yet unmentioned that I haven’t completed yet.

1. Broken Sword : Circle of Blood2. Byzantine: The Betrayal3. The Dig4. Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers5. Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within6. Gabriel Knight: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned7. Grim Fandango This one made me upgrade my video card and buy a new joystick.8. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis I played the floppy version. The CD version talks now.9. The Journeyman Project 3: Legacy of Time10. The Longest Journey11. Monkey Island, The Secret of My first adventure game. Although dated, it will always have an honored space on my game shelf.12. Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon I bought a new computer to play this one. It was worth it.13. Tex Murphy: The Pandora Directive14. Tex Murphy: OverSeer The first DVD game I know of.15. Torrin’s Passage

The Tex games are my favorites of all time. I’m also pleased to see that many of the games in my To Play Pile (I’m only a semi-BAAGer, about 25) are somewhere in these lists. It will be interesting to see what the list looks like next year.

I had to defer posting my list of 15 top games until I had a chance to do enough of MYST EXILE to know whether it would get in the list. Yes, although I have only completed the Voltaic Age, I am sure that it would make it. Since only the presence or absence on the list counts, i.e., no weighting as to order of merit, I will list them alphabetically.

Hi,Allowing for a small margin for errors, there are 138 games recommended so far. 48 have at least 5 recommendations,, 18 have at least 10 recommendations, 10 have at least 15, and The Longest Journey, GK 2 and Myst all have 20 or more.As an indication of the eclectic nature of the list, 58 games have a single recommendation.

And that's probably it: I have played other games which I enjoyed, but they weren't nearly as good as the ones above - and I suspect there are many games out there which I haven't played which I would have enjoyed more than the ones I have played but not listed here ... if you seee what I mean...

Without considering the following games that I have on the 'to play' shelf (TLJ, GK2/3, Broken Sword 2, Byzantine, Nightlong & Noir) and Exile which I haven't purchased yet, here is my list in the order that I played them:

MystVoyeurLast ExpressZork NemesisSanitariumRivenTitanic:Adventure out of TimeBlack DahliaDark Side of the MoonPandora DirectiveGrim FandangoTraitors GateBroken Sword 1AmberNancy Drew: Message in a Haunted Mansion

I already did my list of recommendations a long time ago. I keep looking back at the updated post and find games recommended that I have never even heard of. Can anybody tell what Day of the Tentacle is about? It sounds interesting.
